EXPLORING THE SOLAR SYSTEM Students will create a proposal for a trip to an assigned planet. They will do research and create an argument for or against planning a trip to the planet.
CHRONOPTICON Explore connections between the earth’s movement and the passage of time as you manipulate the movement of the earth and moon and predict moon phases and seasonal constellations.
THE DRAKE EQUATION This online interactive allows you to form and test a hypothesis about life in other galaxies and compare your ideas to those of others.
MASTER MINESWhat treasures hide beneath your feet? Through this game, you can travel around the Americas to various mines, investigating rare caverns and caves. Take your findings back to the lab where you can identify your mysterious crystals!
LANDFORM DETECTIVESThis game provides a fascinating trip through the amazing processes of geology. Look at mountains, valleys, and rivers in a whole new way as you solve the puzzle of how they got to be that way, and think about how long it took to happen.
